Jordan's POV

  "Now for the match you have been waiting for Scary Time and Black Heart!" The announcer announces through the microphone.  Great, it's time. 

As I head towards the ring, my opponent is already sizing me up which is rather odd for me right now. He is basically almost the size of King Kong. That's how big he is. To be honest, I'm a little nerves seeing on how big he is. I look around in the crowd and I see people betting on Scary Time, weird name right but I see why he chose it.

Once I step in, all my nervousness is gone and replaced with adrenaline pumping through my veins. I analyze his position and structure. I guess Dante was right he doesn't seem to have any weaknesses.

DING! DING! DING!

 We circle each other around waiting for the first move. No one budges so I guess it's up to me. I charge up to him, but I see him getting out of the way. Oh hell no! Instead of passing right up him, I kick him in the side. It only made him stumble! Now he is coming towards me, right before I move he punches him hard in the stomach making me loose my breath. Well that's going to leave a big bruise. I see him coming in for a punch again but this time I dodge it. I don't want that to happen to me again. I keep blocking and dodging his punches for some time and he doesn't seem to get tired. Well, now it's me to get into offensive mode.

I punch him in the stomach just to distract him a bit, then I roundhouse kick him. He finally falls down, maybe he is tired. While he is down, I pounce on him and start throwing punches at him. Once he finally registers what is happening, he grabs me from my waist, where my stitches are, and throws me across the room like a rag doll, and I thought I was heavy. 

I start to get up, and he comes up and kicks me in the ribs. I think he broke a few. I went down once again. He straddles me and starts punching me in the face. I feel my conscience slipping but I fight to stay awake. 

Over in the distance, I see Dante trying to call off the fight. Then I see the crowd cheering because they are seeing blood. Yes, blood unfortunately it's mine.

"No!" I mutter under my breath trying to motivate me. I need the money. I can't loose. With all the power I have left I kick him off of me. The crowds gasp, I guess they thought I was dead. I turn to Scary Time and I tackle him. I start punching him in the face. I see him starting to loose conscience just like him. To finish him off I punch him so hard in the temple, which makes him go out like a light. I get off of him. 

"And our winner is Black Heart once again!" the announcer, Billy, says. "Congratulations kid, I thought you died."

"Lucky I didn't!" I replied.

"Well, you better get those checked," he said while pointing to all my bruises.

"Yeah, well see you next time!" I told him while giving him a hug. Billy is a middle age short man. His hair is starting to grey but his deep brown eyes are still young as I saw them when I first got here. Billy is like a grandfather to me, he takes care of me when Dante can't, which is rare.

I start to walk to the edge of the ring but instead I stumble. I struggle to get out, but once I get out, I start to fall. I'm waiting for the impact but it never came. That's when I see Dante holding me. He steadies me and pulls me into a bone crushing hug.

"Oh my god, I thought you were going to die," he says.

"Yeah, I might have not died there but for sure I'm going to die now," I say and he chuckles while setting me free. 

"I'm just glad you are alive! Never do that again!" Dante says while punching me in the shoulder. 

"Okay, well I got to go home, I'm tired as hell and I got school tomorrow," I sigh.
